Hi all,
I would like to create a ''piece'' of application, a poll
system, and want
to make it as a plugin.
I found many information about plugins, most about mixin and extending
core, but not so much for making plugin with controllers and views.
First, Do I think the wrong way with plugin ?
Then I found the following on techno weenie:
for your model :
models_path = File.join(directory, ''app'',
''models'')
$LOAD_PATH << models_path
Dependencies.load_paths << models_path
for the controllers itÂ’s quite the same:
controller_path = File.join(directory, ''app'',
''controllers'')
$LOAD_PATH << controller_path
Dependencies.load_paths << controller_path
config.controller_paths << controller_path
And finally to include views, you should integrate in your controller:
self.template_root = File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__),
''..'',
''views'')
Is it a good practise ? Is it the good way to share a piece of
application?
And other questions come to my mind:
* How standardize the way of communicate between application and
plugin ?
* In the same topic, I have 2 parts in the plugin, one for admin and
one for front user, How should I do to easily provide a plugin knowing
every application have a different way to authorize or authenticate
users?
Please feel free to share any knowledge on these subjects :)
